I didn’t know Okieriete Onaodowan is in this. He’s my fav character on Station 19.

The Burr I saw was fantastic but man, seeing Leslie Odom Jr do The Room Where it Happens is pure magic

Jonathan is very spitty lol. But, I'm not sure what he's supposed to do, ya know? It happens. And it's not like you can just break character to wipe your mouth. He is. He’s the only one I noticed so far

I'm going to grab bagels and an iced coffee, and then it's on! I hope my kid likes it.

I've cried a lot more than is probably normal today lol.
I will never not get goosebumps and tear up when Washington dictates his letter stepping down as President. I just. Sigh.

I watched the first song.... and I just texted MH and told him I would wait for him to watch the rest if he promises we can watch it Mon night....but I don't want to wait, I want to watch it NOW lol. Being kind is sometimes hard.
ETA he said watch it! So I am. He knows I'll watch with him a dozen more times, happily.

I watched it, then went right back to bed. SO GOOD.
My SIL is coming up with her two daughters so we can all watch it together. I'm not mad at this turn of events.

I haven't read any of this thread because I've never seen Hamilton, but we're going to watch today.
My question: is this "safe" for a 7 year old to watch? Obvs most of you don't know my DD, but she's precocious and I think she might be into it. I'm guessing there are no gory murders in a stage musical. Or softcore porn. Right?

I’m at intermission.
This is my first time seeing it because it was supposed to come here next year.
The soundtrack is good. SEEING it is so much better

There's a little groping in act 2 but it's just in one song. You could send her to the restroom 😉

There is some strong language - they edited out two of the three “Fuck”s to get a PG13 rating. Obviously there’s death but it’s mostly stylized and not bloody (not like Sweeney or something), but guns are used throughout the production; adult situations and innuendo but I imagine most of that would go over her head. Now to be fair I haven’t watched it yet today so I’m going off memory from five years ago, but I think you should be fine.

The cursing doesn't even register on my radar because I listen to Pod Save America in the kitchen 😂
I'm a great mother.

I guess I might warn you though Uncaripswife that the 4th and 9th words of the actual musical are "bastard" and "whore" 😳😂

I downloaded it on my iPad this morning but haven't had a chance to watch it yet.
We're off to the local zoo now. Hopefully I'll have time to watch this afternoon or evening. Depends on how busy I get with work since I'm on call today.

I remember driving up to Jersey with my best friend not long after the soundtrack came out, and we were listening to it on the way up. It was her first time hearing it.
After "Yorktown": BFF: That's the act break, right? Me: No.
After "What Comes Next": BFF: That's the act break. Me: No.
After "Dear Theodosia": BFF: Now? Me: No.
After "Nonstop": BFF: This has to be it. Me: Yes. BFF: Holy shit.

Same! DD (almost five) keeps calling it “Hamilton Soundtrack” because that’s what we ask Alexa to play all the time. 🤣

I always wished I could see Hamilton one extra time specifically to laser focus just on Andy Blankenbuehler's stunning choreography and now I finally can!! As a former amateur choreo I am just amazed by his range
